The Playa Del Lobero (Spanish for beach of the sealers is) a beach on the banks of Barclay Bay of Livingston Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . On the west side of Cape Shirreff on the northern foothills of the John Paul II Peninsula, it is located between Punta Las Torres in the north and Punta Mann in the south.
